Vera the Bearded Dragon

I brought Vera home July 7, 2013. She has ruled the house like a proper dragon ever since. I won't pretend like I know everything about beardies, but I will always answer to the best of my abilities. I have done loads of research and pride myself in giving Vera the best care possible!

Tonight I made a big batch of lizard cubes.

Winter squash, mango, plum, Apple, snow peas, sugar snap peas, water cress, blueberries, carrots and calcium+multivitamin.

I chop the veggies and fruit separate and put a little dollop of fruit at the bottom of each cube so there is a bit in each and some color/smell but it’s still mostly veggies.

If I pretend to be a lizard will you make them for me??? they sound yummy

[sir-isaac-snewton]

I definitely thought this was human food at first

How do make cubes..?

[skies-of-salt]

They smell pretty yummy too, to be honest. :3

I pack the chop into silicon ice molds and freeze them to make cubes. Makes portioning easy :)

“A 40 gallon breeder is plenty of room for an adult bearded dragon.” ((To do what?))

“Dragons don’t really climb, so floor space is more important that height” ((Of course they don’t climb if they never have the chance to))

“Dragons are bad climbers and will fall and hurt themselves” ((So would I, because I’m out of shape not because it’s not possible))

I’m just going to post this here tonight. Let’s blow this up, people. I know petitions don’t typically do much, but it takes two seconds, and it can show people how strong and united we are.

I picked up some hissing roaches yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by their squeaks!

Googly eyes are the greatest thing ever.

I should make a blog called “things I did instead of homework”

But Sandi is all upgraded to tiles! She had been living on sand for about 12 years, which I only learned recently was probably a bad thing. I was 10 when I got her, so I think for me being so young and her being as old as she is now I did a pretty good job of keeping her on sand!

Let this be a lesson to those who stick to their guns just because they’ve done something forever; if I was willing to admit that sand was a bad idea and do something to change it after having her live on it for 12 years, ya’ll can do the same. It’s for the good of my baby, my pride can suffer a little for it.

A few quick pictures of Vera and new beardie. I couldn't resist snagging a picture of how Ve was laying!

I feel like today I should try and give the new one a soak since he's shedding... but I will probably definitely be wearing gloves to handle him.

New bearded dragon doesn't move around. He just wants to be left alone. Strawberries and raspberries are offered on a tong every day to try and win him over.

We took in our friend's bearded dragon yesterday. It's only about 8 months old I would guess. I actually was the one who signed for it when it was shipped from the breeder. Gorgeous little beardie. Going to let it get used to our home before taking it out. It's currently shedding and extremely angry.

It's been stormy for a few days. Letting Vera get natural light! Summer is great for beardie bonding!

Come on, can't you drink without me holding it?
